Summary
Classic police procedural echoing the Martin Beck books in style and tone.Detailed and engrossing.

Review

As much about the investigating team and the detail of their work as about the murder itself which remains an enigma. Touching on the sexism (and racisim) inherent in male dominated police work where most victims are female, but not ramming it down our throats. Engrosing details of the twists and turns of the investigation and of the life of the team. And in the endthere is no resolution.
